Okayama JALT:

Hybrid English Classes

Date: Saturday, May 21st, 2005 Time: 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Speaker: Richard Lemmer

Description:
As an increasing number of students have internet access at both home and school, the use of hybrid classes, which combine face 2 face instruction with an online component, has become a practical means of introducing EFL learners to online learning activities. This presentation will report on the activities in a hybrid class for high school students. It will provide an overview of the three main areas of computer mediated communication used in this class; WebQuests, international e-mail exchanges, and discussion forums. The central platform for this class was the Moodle course management system. Class projects were designed to promote inquiry based learning and a recognition and awareness of other cultures, to improve computing skills and to provide an opportunity for learners to use English in a practical and authentic manner.
